This is my plan for editing this page:

• Talk about how punk was often misotheistic, in stark contrast to Krishnacore.
• Talk about the apparent contradiction between the abrasive style of hardcore punk and the prayer and meditation that Hare Krishna followers usually practice.
• Explain what rasa and Nada-Brahma are and how they relate to each other and Krishnacore.
• Perhaps briefly mention the meaning of the number 108 in Hinduism, since one of the first Krishnacore bands was called 108.
• Several other minor changes including:
  • Linking to Transcendence (religion)#Hinduism where transcendence is mentioned.
  • Explain what "transcendental vibration" means.
  • Link to Vic DiCara where he is mentioned.
  • Use consistent spelling of "straight edge" vs. "straightedge." The page for Straight edge uses mainly "straight edge" and also sometimes "straight-edge," but never "straightedge."

Actually on the "straight edge" vs. "straightedge" point, the only appearance of the word "straightedge" occurs inside a quotation, so it should be kept as is. AsDaGo (talk) 02:14, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

Also, explaining "transcendental vibrations" is probably more than a minor change, so I shouldn't have listed it as such. AsDaGo (talk) 02:21, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

In this revision, quotation marks were added around "conscious of its own history and aesthetic," but this was never a direct quote from the referenced text. As such, I have removed the quotes. I also changed "Academic Mike Dines states" to "suggests" since he didn't actually say that directly. AsDaGo (talk) 03:50, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
